"the abc's of me" meme

I've been tagged by Erin to do this meme (for those of you who don't know what a "meme" is -- I sure didn't when I first heard the word -- it's just one of those surveys to find out more about your friends), so I hope you'll find something new and interesting while reading it.

A - Age: 28

B - Band listening to right now: none, but I can hear Treehouse coming from the next room

C - Career future: mother (and apparantly an accountant if Les has anything to say about it)

D - Dad's name: Peter

E - Easiest person to talk to: My husband

F - Favorite song: it always changes -- there are so many awesome songs out there

G - Gummy Bears or Gummy Worms: worms

H - Hometown: Small town, Manitoba, Canada

I - Instruments: clarinet (in high school...and I've lost it since then -- the instrument itself, not my ability, although I'm sure that's gone out the window now too, so I haven't played it in almost a decade!!) and of course the pianoJ - Job: mother, office job

K - Kids: 2 lovely daughters -- Joelle and Malia

L - Longest car ride ever: To Mexico -- TWICE

X - X-rays you've had: ones of my wisdom teeth and just this week a CT scan (does that count as an X-Ray?)

oh wow...you tagged me! btw -- loved your post. i just walked in the door after being gone all weekend so i am not sure when i'll get to it...or if i can get through all those abc's but i'll do as many as i can when i have a moment...shalom...

Jackie -- we have been there once before 3 years ago. I keep dreaming about it ever since and I can't wait to go again!! I'm jealous that you get to go there in a couple of weeks...wanna bring me back a doggie bag? :)

Although, for a closer taste of Mexican -- Winkler has a tasty little restaurant too which is called "Del Rios".

A bilateral implantation...I knew someone was going to ask about that!! Well, I don't even know exactly (I've asked my mom on numerous occasions, but I keep forgetting). But the reason I had to have it was because I had 3 urethras and one of them was retracting which was causing a lot of bladder and kidney infections. I have some nice scars to show for it.

How many urethras are we supposed to have? (don't remember much from junior high science!) Huh. So you were a bit of a freak of nature then, eh? Haha, I kid, of course. At least you have something interesting to report when asked if there's little known or unknown facts about you!!
